From The Big Dig: Mitt & Ted

Healthcare is the problem American politics cannot solve. It’s the subject of screaming matches at town halls, the cause of the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, the justification for political assassination in cold blood. 

Mitt & Ted, a Healthcare story, the new season from The Big Dig, looks at how Mitt Romney and Ted Kennedy began their political journeys on opposite sides of the issue—and they ended once again on opposite sides—but for a brief period in the middle they worked together to pass a groundbreaking law: one that promised to finally transform the politics of American healthcare. So what brought this odd couple together, and what ultimately pulled Mitt and Ted apart?
